halep in trouble down a aet amd 0-2

[cincinnatikid513]

gotta love womens tennis

[yisman]

tournament started an hour ago and I already lost my winner!

[playersonly69]

Definitely a game changer, but I have a feeling that VERY FEW of us even took have her in the semifinals.



Yisman you didnt need the points anyway. Let other posters win for once

[cincinnatikid513]

i think most have her losing to serena

[Sam Losco]

luckily i had halep losing in quarters. didnt expect this though

[JAKEPEAVY21]

had Halep making the final

[SamsNCharge99]

i think most have her losing to serena

yes!!!

[cincinnatikid513]

had Halep making the final

i''m surprised mr 3pm and the yis had no power halep going so deep 2 of sbrs biggest sharps

[leovegas]

she has been in great form for a year or so now. I've never really been fond of er game but it seems like she is more aggressive going for winners nowadays instead of just getting the ball back in play, Wozniacki style. In retrospect, she has played a shitload of matches the past few weeks and ran out of gas in the 2nd and 3rd sets of the final against Bertens(in Cinci I think?). I still think I could be alive in this because i took a couple of dark horses to make the semis.

[fried cheese]

im ruined!

[jtoler]

halep is always rusty in 1st rounds getting the ball back midcourt, kanepi too much power and she kept her composure today was patient and didnt wack errors around and get frustrated

[yisman]

I picked Halep last one too. I keep picking her until I end up right.

[beefcake]

Dam I picked Mertens in SF and she gave me a heart attack..WHEW!!

[cincinnatikid513]

not very quick updating the brackets tournytopia

[cincinnatikid513]

kerber looks awful , my pick to win it all yikes she could go out today way she is playing

sloane being sloane

sloane being sloane

She only needs to serve marginally better for this to be a no contest in sets 2 and 3.

The other girl played a game of her life when she finally broke at *4-5, keeping every point short. But if Stephens puts 10% more first serves in the court, she wins 6-3 6-2. Let's see what happens.

idk what it is about sloane but i dont care for her body language,,sometimes she looks like she doesnt care

[Grivas_Digeni]

Stephens not even playing any better. Kalinina starting to drop off. I would back under and Stephens games handicap right about now.

Only concern is the possible hand injury she had MT for. This could be the reason the underdog is still in this game.

i don't remember her 1st serve being so weak 93mph yikes, 2 games away another early exit from majors this year

[shari91]

if not send me my points back

You didn't enter either of my contests. You just entered the main ones. Not sure how that would even happen since I provided everyone with the link in the first post of each thread but I'll put your score in when I'm posting everyone else's. I'll probably forget a few times so just remind me if I do.

[Grivas_Digeni]

This is WTA. If she puts those 80-90 mph serves in play, there are only a handful of women who can punish her consistently. This kid she just beat, did in stretches during the first two sets, but got tired at the end.

What I'm saying is she can win this tournament winning 60% or so of points on first serve. She doesn't need to be a Raonic to beat this field.

[cincinnatikid513]

kerber escapes , she has looked terrible first 2 matches can't see her going deep in the tourny way she is playing

[shari91]

That'd be right... I picked her to win it all

[cincinnatikid513]

yah we both have kerber beating serena in the finals, i wish they had an option to change ur finals pick after 1st round or 2nd i would def put serena as champ and take out kerber she's really struggling and i don't remember her serve being this bad
